00:00:00Is that my seat?
00:00:08What is this?
00:00:23Morgan, we share a class, it's fate.
00:00:25I can't wait to take you on a date.
00:00:27Your secret admirer?
00:00:31P.S. I'm not some random weirdo I told Liam who I am.
00:00:36Mm-mm. I'm not gonna tell you that'd ruin all the fun.
00:00:40But, speaking of fun,
00:00:43happy birthday.
00:00:45Oh, pencil case.
00:00:48How pragmatic.
00:00:50Thanks.
00:01:00I...
00:01:01We got yours. Mm.
00:01:02What is new?
00:01:03Can you share mine?
00:01:10So you're seriously not gonna tell me who my secret admirer is?
00:01:13I'll give you a hint.
00:01:15It is one of the three boys that you are always talking about.
00:01:23We share a class.
00:01:26We share a class with all three. That doesn't narrow it down.
00:01:28Well, then I guess you're actually gonna have to talk to them.
00:01:34I can't do that.
00:01:36Why not?
00:01:37Because I'm too shy.
00:01:39You are never shy around me.
00:01:41It's different.
00:01:42I'm only shy around guys with romantic potential.
00:01:44Okay?
00:01:54Jesus!
00:01:55Whoa!
00:01:56We've known each other since we were six years old.
00:01:58How are you this startled by my appearance?
00:02:00I wasn't. I'm not.
00:02:01Morgan, I am worried about you and the shy talk.
00:02:06How are you gonna find a boyfriend if you can't even talk to a guy you like?
00:02:10Maybe I don't want one.
00:02:11Maybe I just enjoy daydreaming about it.
00:02:14Daydreaming about him?
00:02:26What does he always say about him?
00:02:32Oh my god, he is so cute.
00:02:34And he's artistic.
00:02:36And he's just so deep.
00:02:38I, I'm sorry.
00:02:39Stop.
00:02:41Well, if you will talk to him.
00:02:44Life is about taking trances, right?
00:02:47Live a little.
00:02:49That's very inspiring.
00:02:52Have you ever considered becoming a life coach?
00:02:54As a matter of fact, I have.
00:02:57Now.
00:02:59Go.
00:03:01Get up.
00:03:03Antoine?
00:03:05Do you want to get lunch together sometime maybe?
00:03:08Sorry, what?
00:03:11I asked if you wanted to grab lunch.
00:03:13Like, later.
00:03:14Today.
00:03:15I have to practice in my band over lunch period.
00:03:20The dreadnoughts.
00:03:22Oh.
00:03:23Right.
00:03:24No problem.
00:03:27You can come if you want.
00:03:29Really?
00:03:32I'd love to.
00:03:34Cool.
00:03:35See you there at noon.
00:03:57So, Morgan, right?
00:04:01What kind of music do you like?
00:04:03All kinds.
00:04:04But my friend Liam and I have been really into the splinters lately.
00:04:07You listen to that pop trash?
00:04:09Well, it's not like it's my absolute favorite or anything.
00:04:13What about you? What do you listen to?
00:04:17I'm very particular when it comes to my sound,
00:04:20but lately I've been into lowercase.
00:04:23Oh, cool. Never heard of lowercase, but I'll check them out.
00:04:28It's not a band. It's a musical genre.
00:04:33It's all about ambient minimalism taken to the extreme.
00:04:38Oh.
00:04:40Let's start with Monster Zone.
00:04:43One, two, three.
00:04:53Stop, stop, stop.
00:04:55Jeff, you're out of tune.
00:04:57And Danny, you're at least three beats behind.
00:04:59All right, okay.
00:05:00Come on, can you please get your crap together?
00:05:02Yeah, yeah, yeah, okay.
00:05:04How many times have we practiced this?
00:05:06All right, let's do it again.
00:05:07Again, from the top.
00:05:10Davey, what are you doing?
00:05:20Yeah, it's...
00:05:23It's like this.
00:05:25One, two, three.
00:05:27One, two, three.
00:05:28All right, all right.
00:05:31Hey, where are you going?
00:05:44We haven't even gotten to my best riffs yet.
00:05:46I've heard enough.
00:05:48Besides, I've got to get to class.
00:05:50Don't you want to listen to some good music for once?
00:05:56Good music?
00:05:57My taste may be basic, but I'd take the splinters over this noise any day.
00:06:01Again?
00:06:02Again.
00:06:03Again.
00:06:04Oh!
00:06:05What's the rush?
00:06:06Oh!
00:06:07What's the rush?
00:06:08Oh!
00:06:09What's the rush?
00:06:10Oh!
00:06:11What's the rush?
00:06:12Oh!
00:06:13What's the rush?
00:06:14Oh!
00:06:15What's the rush?
00:06:16Oh!
00:06:17What's the rush?
00:06:18Oh!
00:06:19Oh!
00:06:20What's the rush?
00:06:21Oh!
00:06:22What's the rush?
00:06:23Oh!
00:06:24What's the rush?
00:06:25Sam!
00:06:26I'm sorry.
00:06:27I didn't see you.
00:06:28Can I, uh, have my phone open?
00:06:30Oh!
00:06:31Oh!
00:06:32Oh!
00:06:33Oh!
00:06:34Oh!
00:06:35Oh!
00:06:36Oh!
00:06:37Oh!
00:06:38Oh!
00:06:39Oh!
00:06:40Oh!
00:06:41Oh!
00:06:42Oh!
00:06:43Oh!
00:06:44Oh!
00:06:45Oh!
00:06:46Oh!
00:06:47Oh!
00:06:48Oh!
00:06:49Oh!
00:06:50Oh!
00:06:51Sure!
00:06:52I mean, only if...
00:06:55Only if you wanna get ice cream?
00:06:58Or something?
00:06:59After school?
00:07:00I mean, of course you can have your phone back.
00:07:03Here.
00:07:04I'd love to get ice cream with you, but...
00:07:06why not right now?
00:07:08Oh!
00:07:09Um!
00:07:11Because we have class?
00:07:14So.
00:07:17Skip.
00:07:20I've never skipped class before.
00:07:22There's a first time for everything.
00:07:28You know what? Why not?
00:07:30Nothing wrong with a little misbehavior now and then, right?
00:07:33That's my motto, too.
00:07:40After you.
00:07:47See? Skipping school can be fun.
00:07:51Almost as fun as those two red lights you ran through.
00:07:55Morgan, with a car like this, you trade comfort for speed.
00:08:00I miss comfort.
00:08:03Comfort?
00:08:05I thought you wanted to misbehave.
00:08:09I don't know why I said that.
00:08:12Sounds like you want to try something different.
00:08:15Something...
00:08:17dangerous.
00:08:26Come on.
00:08:28I'm bored.
00:08:29Let's go find some tracks to jump.
00:08:30You can't just drop that there.
00:08:33What are you, some humanitarian?
00:08:36Well, I don't litter, if that's what you mean.
00:08:39Hold this.
00:08:47So the hot, good girl decides she wants to be bad for a day.
00:08:53I like that.
00:08:54I like that.
00:09:07God, my girlfriend would be so pissed if she caught us like this.
00:09:10You have a girlfriend?
00:09:13Someone who wants to misbehave definitely knows that.
00:09:17Misbehave as in skip class, live a little.
00:09:21Kiss a guy with a girlfriend?
00:09:23Morgan.
00:09:25Morgan.
00:09:26Push somebody's lucky mom for fat, man.
00:09:27So that's a no on the ride back?
00:09:30It's open.
00:09:32How'd it go with Antoine?
00:09:47How that bad huh horrible though not as bad as my date with Sam
00:09:56Wait did you skip class to go on a date with Sam Hitchens?
00:10:06Who are you and what have you done my best friend? I wish I had just stuck to daydreaming about these guys

00:14:26When you know you know

00:14:47It's the best things on the menu
00:14:48Is something wrong?
00:15:00It's just
00:15:01I don't eat fish
00:15:03Oh
00:15:04I'm sorry
00:15:05No it's okay
00:15:06I can send it back
00:15:07Can we swap this for a steak?
00:15:11Actually can we get some menus please?
00:15:14I'd like to decide for myself
00:15:15Oh okay
00:15:17Uh no problem
00:15:18I'll remember that for next time
00:15:19It just might sound weird but
00:15:25What do you like about me?
00:15:31Well
00:15:31Besides the fact that you'd look gorgeous on my arm in photos
00:15:35Um
00:15:37I mean you seem really easygoing
00:15:39You're always so calm and quiet
00:15:42I'm not quiet
00:15:44Maybe I'm a little shy
00:15:46At school
00:15:47But around people who really know me
00:15:50I can be really loud and opinionated
00:15:52Look don't you want to be here?
00:15:55I thought girls love all this attention
00:15:56You know the romantic gestures
00:15:58I thought so too
00:16:01Now I'm not so sure
00:16:03I need to leave
00:16:05Hey don't
00:16:08Look I'm gonna look like such a loser
00:16:10If you don't stay
00:16:11That's no reason to stay
00:16:14We're wrong for each other Derek
00:16:16If you knew me at all
00:16:18You'd get that
00:16:18Well damn
00:16:26Well damn
00:16:26How's it love you?
00:16:31Okay
00:16:32I feel nice to be there
00:16:41I loved it
00:16:42I love it
00:16:43Call it
00:16:45You're welcome
00:16:46I love it
00:16:46I love it
00:16:47I always loved it
00:16:47I love it
00:16:49Yeah
00:16:50I love it
00:16:51There we go
00:16:51You're so
00:16:53How'd it go?
00:17:07How'd it go?
00:17:10I left early.
00:17:16Why?
00:17:18I thought Derek was everything you ever wanted, Mr. Popular and Romantic.
00:17:23I thought so, too.
00:17:28But then I realized romance isn't about all that stuff you see in the movies.
00:17:37It's about knowing someone.
00:17:40Really knowing them.
00:17:43It's about liking all the same music and laughing at all the same cheesy jokes.
00:17:53Oh, you walked into my life, and that's such a dark time.
00:17:58It's how I feel about you.
00:18:02Look, I know you don't feel the same, or you never would have helped Derek, but...
00:18:07I had to tell you.
00:18:10You said, oh, baby, you took the end of time, you were the light in the sun.
00:18:21The reason I helped Derek plan the secret admirer thing is because I wanted you to be happy.
00:18:26You're always talking about these guys you have crushes on.
00:18:32You were the most creative, badass, talented guys.
00:18:38Guys who are nothing like me.
00:18:41Liam, you are the most creative, badass, talented guy that I know.
00:18:49You were right in front of me the whole time.
00:18:51Oh, I got holes in my shoes, and I got dirt on my hands.
00:19:13It all takes care of you better than any other man.
00:19:17You're going to have to get a little less pragmatic with presents, though.
00:19:28What do you mean?
00:19:30A pencil case, really.
00:19:34Did you look inside?
00:19:39Did you...
00:19:40Get us tickets to see the splinters live next month?
00:19:44What?
00:19:45Yeah, I did.
00:19:46Oh, my God.
00:20:16Hi. Why aren't you in class?
00:20:22Oh, I said I had to go to the bathroom. I'm just checking in on the patient.
00:20:28I'm fine. Just not feeling any better and wishing I was in school.
00:20:34You are the only person I know who'd rather be at school than home binge-watching Netflix.
00:20:39I like school. And you know I'm not going to binge-watch anything without you, because then we can't talk about it.
00:20:45Good point. I like that we watch shows together.
00:20:50Me too.
00:20:51I don't think your dad loves it, though.
00:20:53He's just convinced we're making out the whole time.
00:20:56He's not entirely wrong.
00:20:58So, what did I miss in English? Did she give us any new chapters to read before next week's test?
00:21:07No, the reading hasn't changed, and I took notes for you on everything, so...
00:21:12Knowing you, you probably won't need them.
00:21:14Anything good happen at lunch today?
00:21:16Besides Anika and Derek getting back together for the tenth time?
00:21:19They did?
00:21:21When? How?
00:21:22He made a big show of it in the quad. He even got the entire acapella group to come serenade her.
00:21:28Ugh, I'm missing everything.
00:21:30You've been gone for two days.
00:21:32Yeah, and that's enough time for me to fall behind on my schoolwork and my social life.
00:21:37Well, it'll be here when you get back, I promise.
00:21:40But in the meantime, I'm going to come over after school.
00:21:43I am going to bring your homework and bring your favorite soup,
00:21:46and then we are going to binge watch every episode of Outer Banks.
00:21:50And I promise I'll actually try to pay attention this time.
00:21:53Or we could just make out and prove your dad right.
00:22:03Hang on a minute.
00:22:07You have no idea how much I would love that, but I can't.
00:22:33I really don't want to get you sick.
00:22:35What if I sit on the opposite side of the room?
00:22:38Let's just keep it on FaceTime for a couple more days, okay?
00:22:42That way I'll feel better sooner and I'll be back in school.
00:22:46I understand.
00:22:49I just wish you were here.
00:22:51Me too.
00:22:54Well, I better get back to Trigg.
00:22:56Don't forget to...
00:22:57I'll take very detailed notes.
00:23:01Thanks, Liam.
00:23:03Feel better.
00:23:05I'll take a look.
00:23:06I'll take a look.
00:23:06I'll take a look.

00:23:15I'll take a look.
00:23:16I'll take a look.
00:23:17I'll take a look.
00:23:17I'll take a look.
00:23:18Not the call I was expecting today, but I'm not mad about it.
00:23:46What's up, Morgan?
00:23:47You missed me?
00:23:47Don't flatter yourself.
00:23:49I'm just calling to find out what I missed in history today.
00:23:52Uh, I was hoping you could tell me.
00:23:55What are you talking about?
00:23:56I've been out sick.
00:23:58I texted you and asked you to take notes for me.
00:24:00Morgan, if you're not in class, what makes you think I would be?
00:24:05Sam, we have a group project due next week.
00:24:08Yeah, and I'm sure you're doing a great job with that.
00:24:11I am not doing the project by myself.
00:24:14You need to help.
00:24:15You and I both know that me helping would only slow things down.
00:24:19The project would be a lot better if you do the work.
00:24:21That is completely unfair.
00:24:23It's your grade, too.
00:24:25Yeah, and with you, I know my grade is in good hands.
00:24:38What?
00:24:38Sam Hitchens, you better help me with a stupid project, or so help me, Beyonce, it will key
00:24:43that stupid car you love so much.
00:24:44Whoa, don't threaten, Rhonda.
00:24:47I'm completely serious.
00:24:49All right, fine.
00:24:51Meet me at DQ and we can talk about the project or whatever.
00:24:55I can't meet you anywhere.
00:24:57I'm sick.
00:24:58You have to come to my house.
00:25:00And why would I come to your house if you're sick?
00:25:02Because your grade depends on it and I really don't care if I give you a fever.
00:25:07You already do.
00:25:08You better be on your way over here.
00:25:21What?
00:25:22I...
00:25:23Liam, I thought you were...
00:25:24Coming over?
00:25:25I totally can.
00:25:26I just need...
00:25:27Let me just get, like, a few things for you, okay?
00:25:30No, I don't think that's a good idea.
00:25:32But I thought you just said...
00:25:34I know.
00:25:35I think the flu medicine is making me delirious.
00:25:37Okay.
00:25:39Uh, well, I just got home, so if you change your mind, just send some smoke signals out the
00:25:47window.
00:25:48Hang on a minute, okay?
00:25:51Okay.
00:25:52Sam, I changed my mind.
00:25:58Don't come over here.
00:25:59You're joking.
00:26:00I just made myself available for this and you're cancelling?
00:26:03I just made myself available for this and you're cancelling?
00:26:06I know, but today isn't a good day.
00:26:09I'm sick.
00:26:10Yeah, you keep saying that.
00:26:11Right, so you wouldn't want to come over anyway.
00:26:14Nope.
00:26:15Sorry.
00:26:16Already on the way.
00:26:17Wait, Sam.
00:26:18Sam?
00:26:19Uh, what about Sam?
00:26:21He, uh, I need to talk to him about homework.
00:26:27Are we talking about the same Sam?
00:26:31Wait, what?
00:26:36Morgan, listen, we have...
00:26:38Oh, what up, Liam?
00:26:40Sam?
00:26:41Were you intrigued today?
00:26:42I could really use some notes.
00:26:44Uh, yeah, I was.
00:26:47Um, you need notes from today?
00:26:51Or like, the whole semester?
00:26:54I'll take whatever, honestly.
00:26:56Sam, this really isn't a good time.
00:27:00Yeah, I thought about it and you're right.
00:27:02I can't be hanging out with a sick person, so it's probably better if I don't come over and you handle the project.
00:27:08You're coming over?
00:27:10Well, I was.
00:27:12Morgan doesn't care that it's completely irresponsible to invite somebody over when you're sick.
00:27:16That is not what happened!
00:27:18Uh, kind of is.
00:27:20Anyways, there's this new hottie working the counter at DQ and she's off in 10, so I gotta go.
00:27:26What?
00:27:27What about our group project?
00:27:29Just let me know where you need me to initial or whatever.
00:27:31That is not how group projects work!
00:27:34Gotta go, bye!
00:27:36Oh!
00:27:37And Liam.
00:27:38What's up, Sam?
00:27:40Maybe keep taking notes for me and Trig.
00:27:48So, you were gonna have him come over?
00:27:51Just to work on our project.
00:27:53You know how important that grade is to me.
00:27:55And you know that taking care of my girlfriend when she's sick is important to me.
00:28:04Why would you let him come over and not me?
00:28:06I thought you hated that guy.
00:28:08I don't hate him.
00:28:09I just...
00:28:11Don't like him.
00:28:13Three weeks ago, you thought you might want to date him and now you're inviting him over
00:28:18to your house.
00:28:21Look, it just feels like you don't want to see me.
00:28:23I do.
00:28:25It's just...
00:28:29Honestly, I don't want you to see me.
00:28:33Not like this.
00:28:35Morgan, we've been through every awkward phase imaginable together.
00:28:40I don't care how you look.
00:28:42I know, but things are different now.
00:28:46I don't care if Sam sees me sick and gross because it's Sam.
00:28:50But with you, I guess I'm just a little more self-conscious.
00:28:56Morgan, I still feel like I'm playing out of my league here.
00:29:02There's literally nothing you could do to ever change the way I feel about you.
00:29:08Okay.
00:29:09I'm sorry I even considered letting Sam come over and not you.
00:29:16I'm just overthinking it.
00:29:19And I really would feel terrible if I got you sick.
00:29:22I know.
00:29:23But it's for me to decide whether it's worth the risk or not.
00:29:29And it definitely is.
00:29:32You know I'm still gonna make you watch Outer Banks, right?
00:29:34Yes.
00:29:35Totally.
00:29:36It's actually why I'm coming over in the first place.
00:29:41Or we can do homework.
00:29:42I have all your notes from class.
00:29:43That's better than flowers.
00:29:47It is so cute that you think so.
00:29:52Morgan.
00:29:55From where I'm sitting,
00:29:58you look beautiful.
00:30:05Okay, I'm gonna come over now.
00:30:12You are a sight for sore eyes.
00:30:35They can't be that sore.
00:30:36You're staring at the Italian coast every day.
00:30:38That's true.
00:30:39It's beautiful here.
00:30:42But not nearly as beautiful as you.
00:30:46I wanted to look nice for a date.
00:30:48Well, you always look nice.
00:30:53Happy three months.
00:30:54Happy three months.
00:31:00So, how was your morning?
00:31:02Boring.
00:31:03Nobody's in town.
00:31:05While you're off gallivanting in Italy,
00:31:07I think I've read every book the library has to offer.
00:31:11A summer spent reading,
00:31:12that sounds like your dream.
00:31:13Yeah.
00:31:14Well, even that is losing its luster.
00:31:18What about you?
00:31:19Are you fluent in Italian yet?
00:31:21Si.
00:31:22Ciao, Bella.
00:31:23Come stai?
00:31:24Viglia, Paolo.
00:31:26Not bad.
00:31:27I'm working on it.
00:31:28Still got another month to nail it.
00:31:33Another month I don't get to see you.
00:31:35I know.
00:31:36I miss you so much.
00:31:38I didn't think an entire summer apart would be this bad.
00:31:41I know, me neither.
00:31:43I actually wanted to talk to you about that.
00:31:46I kind of wanted to talk to you about that too.
00:31:50You go first.
00:31:52Uh...
00:31:55Morgan, can you just give me one second?
00:31:58Sure.
00:32:07Um, hi?
00:32:09Oh.
00:32:10Hi.
00:32:11Uh, sorry.
00:32:12I didn't know this was on.
00:32:14Liam just went to the other room for a minute.
00:32:16Liam just went to the other room for a minute.
00:32:19Oh.
00:32:21You're Morgan.
00:32:24That's me.
00:32:28Why didn't you tell me she was on right now?
00:32:31It's okay, she doesn't know anything yet.
00:32:33Well, you better tell her.
00:32:36Hey, sorry about that.
00:32:41Everything okay?
00:32:44Um, yeah.
00:32:45Yeah.
00:32:47I think so.
00:32:49You?
00:32:50Yeah.
00:32:51There's nothing.
00:32:53Um, I wanted to talk to you about...
00:32:57Liam, I, uh, I'm actually feeling kind of funny.
00:33:01Do you think we could pick this up later?
00:33:05Of course.
00:33:07Yeah, are you alright?
00:33:09I'm fine, I just need to lie down or something.
00:33:12I'll call you back later, okay?
00:33:15I'll call you back later, okay?
00:33:18Okay.
00:33:20Okay.
00:33:23I'll call you back later.
00:33:25Let's go.
00:33:27Okay.
00:33:29Okay.
00:33:31Let's go.
00:33:32It's Amy. I'm not here right now.
00:33:50God, is everybody gone for the summer?
00:33:59What do you want, Sam?
00:34:00Morgan! What up, girl?
00:34:02How's summer?
00:34:04Painfully boring.
00:34:05That's cool. Listen, I need some help.
00:34:08I need some help.
00:34:10The thing is, I'm stuck doing summer school.
00:34:13Turns out, skipping all of my classes wasn't the best idea,
00:34:17and my parents took away my car until I get my grades back up,
00:34:19which is honestly so uncool.
00:34:23Anyways, I was thinking about how you're pretty smart,
00:34:26and we did okay on that group project last year,
00:34:30so what if you helped me out and tutored me or something?
00:34:34You're joking, right?
00:34:36You want me to tutor you?
00:34:37Yeah! Why not?
00:34:39You love learning.
00:34:41Wait, those weren't the same thing.
00:34:43Oh, come on.
00:34:44You know what I mean.
00:34:49Fine. I'll help you.
00:34:50That's what I'm talking about.
00:34:52You're the best, Morgan.
00:34:53But I want something in return.
00:34:56Oh.
00:35:00Well, fine.
00:35:02Name your price.
00:35:06I need a girlfriend.
00:35:08I need a girlfriend.
00:35:09Well, well, well, Morgan.
00:35:11I had no idea.
00:35:14Most of the ladies that I'm acquainted with
00:35:16don't necessarily lean that way,
00:35:18but I think I know a few who might.
00:35:20No, that's not what I meant.
00:35:24I mean, I need a friend.
00:35:27A sounding board.
00:35:30I need you to give me advice.
00:35:34Advice?
00:35:35Yeah.
00:35:38Okay.
00:35:39Hit me.
00:35:40What's the problem?
00:35:41Okay.
00:35:42So, Liam is away for the summer
00:35:44with his family in Italy.
00:35:46Italian babes?
00:35:48Dope.
00:35:49And we were FaceTiming earlier
00:35:52and there was some girl with him.
00:35:54I don't know who she was
00:35:55and he didn't say anything about it,
00:35:57but, I mean,
00:35:58they seemed like they knew each other well,
00:35:59like they were pretty close.
00:36:00And I don't know,
00:36:01I guess I just have this, like,
00:36:02weird feeling about it.
00:36:04Damn.
00:36:05Liam, my man.
00:36:07I honestly didn't even think he had it in him,
00:36:09but you go to a foreign country
00:36:11and all bets are off.
00:36:12So,
00:36:15you think I should be worried?
00:36:18Oh, absolutely.
00:36:21Morgan,
00:36:22a man doesn't go to Europe for the summer
00:36:23and not want to taste the local delicacies,
00:36:26if you know what I mean.
00:36:28Can you blame him?
00:36:31Well, what did you guys discuss before he left?
00:36:34Nothing.
00:36:35Nothing?
00:36:36You never said,
00:36:38Liam,
00:36:38you're going to a foreign country
00:36:40where you're going to be surrounded
00:36:41by beautiful and exotic women.
00:36:44Please don't cheat on me.
00:36:45I didn't think I had to.
00:36:48We're not mind readers,
00:36:50Morgan.
00:36:50Ugh!
00:36:50Morgan,
00:36:54where'd you go?
00:36:58So,
00:36:59should I come over to study?
00:37:02Or,
00:37:02even better,
00:37:03can you come to me?
00:37:05It's kind of hard getting around
00:37:06without a car.
00:37:07I'll talk to you later, Sam.
00:37:09I have to handle this.
00:37:10Morgan,
00:37:10you said you would help me.
00:37:20Hey,
00:37:25you feeling better?
00:37:26Are you cheating on me?
00:37:28Are you cheating on me?
00:37:30What?
00:37:31Listen,
00:37:31I get it.
00:37:33We've been apart all summer
00:37:34and you're in Italy,
00:37:35which is
00:37:36probably really beautiful
00:37:37and really romantic
00:37:38and here I am,
00:37:39just
00:37:39bored and lonely.
00:37:41How can I compete with that?
00:37:43But
00:37:43if you met someone else,
00:37:45just tell me
00:37:46because I've spent my summer
00:37:48missing you
00:37:48and if you're just off
00:37:49having a blast
00:37:50with some other girl,
00:37:51I have a right to know.
00:37:53Morgan,
00:37:54uh,
00:37:55where,
00:37:56where is this coming from?
00:37:58I,
00:37:58I don't know.
00:38:00I saw that girl
00:38:01on her computer
00:38:02and
00:38:02then I was talking to Sam
00:38:04and-
00:38:04Well,
00:38:04you talked to Sam?
00:38:06I don't really have
00:38:07anyone else to talk to.
00:38:09Everyone's gone for the summer
00:38:11and
00:38:11it's lonely here.
00:38:14Well,
00:38:14just a thought,
00:38:15but you can always
00:38:16talk to me.
00:38:19Okay.
00:38:20who was that girl?
00:38:24That was my cousin.
00:38:26She's in Italy
00:38:27with my family
00:38:27for the summer.
00:38:29Oh.
00:38:31Oh.
00:38:33But why was she-
00:38:34what did you want
00:38:36to talk to me about?
00:38:37I wanted it to be a surprise,
00:38:39but I talked to your parents
00:38:43and they gave me permission
00:38:45to fly you out here
00:38:46for a week.
00:38:48They gave me permission
00:38:50to fly you out here
00:38:51for a week.
00:38:52Italy's just,
00:38:53it's so beautiful
00:38:54and,
00:38:54and I'm,
00:38:56I want to share it with you.
00:38:59It's just not special
00:39:00without you here.
00:39:00Oh my God.
00:39:02Liam.
00:39:04I'm sorry.
00:39:06I don't know
00:39:06what I was thinking.
00:39:08Well,
00:39:09I know what I'm thinking,
00:39:10which is that you need
00:39:11to stop taking advice
00:39:12from Sam Hitchens.
00:39:14Loneliness must be
00:39:15really getting to me.
00:39:17I just,
00:39:18I really miss you.
00:39:21And Sam got in my head
00:39:23and,
00:39:24That's okay.
00:39:29But do you want
00:39:29to come to Italy?
00:39:31Well,
00:39:32it's funny you should ask.
00:39:36I begged my parents
00:39:37and they actually got me
00:39:38a ticket to come see you.
00:39:40That is why
00:39:41it was so easy
00:39:42to get them to say yes.
00:39:43Um,
00:39:44when,
00:39:45when do you get here?
00:39:46I arrived next week.
00:39:48Worlds apart
00:39:49and we're still
00:39:49on the same page.
00:39:50Let's keep it that way.
00:39:52Deal.
00:39:53I miss you.
00:40:07I miss you too.
00:40:23I miss you too.
00:40:24I miss you too.
00:40:25I miss you too.
00:40:26I miss you too.
00:40:27I miss you too.
00:40:28I miss you too.
00:40:29I miss you too.
00:40:30I miss you too.
00:40:31I miss you too.
00:40:32I miss you too.
00:40:33I miss you too.
00:40:34I miss you too.
00:40:35I miss you too.
00:40:36I miss you too.
00:40:37I miss you too.
00:40:38I miss you too.
00:40:39I miss you too.
00:40:40I miss you too.
00:40:41I miss you too.
00:40:42I miss you too.
00:40:43I miss you too.
00:40:44I miss you too.
00:40:45I miss you too.
00:40:46I miss you too.
00:40:47I miss you too.
00:40:48I miss you too.
00:40:49Morgan?
00:40:50Hey, Antoine.
00:40:51How's it going?
00:40:53How's your summer?
00:40:54Well, I went to Burning Man, which was pretty transformative.
00:40:59Is that like a seance or something?
00:41:02Burning Man is a movement.
00:41:04For some people, it's a lifestyle, but I wouldn't expect someone like you to understand that.
00:41:09Oh.
00:41:10I'm sorry.
00:41:11That was harsh.
00:41:13Let's start over.
00:41:16Hey Morgan, how are you?
00:41:19My summer was good, thank you for asking.
00:41:21What's going on?
00:41:22I was actually kind of hoping you could help me with something.
00:41:27I'm trying to write a song for Liam's birthday, only I'm having a hard time with some of the chords.
00:41:32I was hoping you could give me a lesson.
00:41:34You want me to teach you guitar?
00:41:36Yes.
00:41:37It's just, you're really good and-
00:41:40Last time I checked, you weren't a fan of my music.
00:41:42I was being unfair to you.
00:41:44I'm sure you have a lot of incredible songs.
00:41:46Thanks.
00:41:47I appreciate that.
00:41:48I do have a lot of really incredible songs, but that's the thing, Morgan.
00:41:53I'm an artist.
00:41:55I'm not a teacher.
00:41:57Teaching is something that artists do once they fail, and I have no intention of failing.
00:42:02So I can't help you.
00:42:03Try Guitar Center.
00:42:04Wait!
00:42:05I really can't afford Guitar Center.
00:42:07I can't even afford a birthday present for Liam, which is why I'm trying to write the song.
00:42:12There's something else you could help me with.
00:42:15Okay.
00:42:16You're on student council, right?
00:42:19I am.
00:42:20So then you know this girl, Devon?
00:42:23Devon, like our school vice president?
00:42:25Of course I do.
00:42:27I want to ask her out on a date, but I need an intro.
00:42:31If you can get her to talk to me, then I will help you with guitar lessons.
00:42:35Let me give her a call and I'll call you back, okay?
00:42:38Okay.
00:42:39Yeah.
00:42:40Oh, and Morgan, if you want me to teach you any of that pop trash, I won't do it.
00:42:44If you're going to learn to play, you're going to learn to play the good stuff.
00:42:48Whatever you're willing to teach me.
00:42:50Let me know what she says.
00:42:52Hey, what's up Morgan?
00:43:04Hey, for the reading assignments in English, what chapters are we supposed to be doing?
00:43:09Chapters one through seven.
00:43:11I'm ready on chapter 13.
00:43:13Gatsby is such a narcissist.
00:43:15I don't know why this is considered required reading.
00:43:18Totally.
00:43:19I'm not that far yet, but I've seen the movie.
00:43:22Only Leo can make that character remotely interesting.
00:43:26Anyway, is that it?
00:43:28I need to get back to warming up before class.
00:43:31I, uh, actually, uh, do you, uh...
00:43:35Do you know Antoine?
00:43:36The scrub with the long hair who's always making a mess in the music room?
00:43:40Uh, yeah.
00:43:43Well, he, uh...
00:43:46He kinda likes you.
00:43:53He likes me like...
00:43:55Like he wants to take you on a date.
00:43:57Look, I'm sure he's a nice enough guy, but I'm not really interested in dating right now.
00:44:03Between extracurriculars and college prep, I don't really have the time.
00:44:08I don't really have the time.
00:44:10Besides, I doubt he and I have anything in common.
00:44:13That's not true.
00:44:15You have a lot in common.
00:44:16Oh, really?
00:44:17So he's also on the Ivy League track?
00:44:20Well, no, but he's an artist.
00:44:25So?
00:44:26You are too.
00:44:28You dance.
00:44:29Dance is athletic.
00:44:31It's fitness.
00:44:32But it's creative.
00:44:34When you're dancing, how does it make you feel?
00:44:38It makes me feel...
00:44:41Free.
00:44:43Like all of the stress from SATs and GPAs and all of that stuff sort of just melts away.
00:44:50I can just lose myself in the music and be me.
00:44:54Exactly.
00:44:55That's art.
00:44:57You're passionate about dance and he's passionate about music.
00:45:01All I'm saying is give him a chance.
00:45:05First impressions aren't everything.
00:45:07Alright.
00:45:08Fine.
00:45:09You can give him my number.
00:45:11Really?
00:45:12Yes.
00:45:13Really.
00:45:14But you better side with me at the next student council meeting whenever Derek gets another
00:45:18one of his crazy ideas.
00:45:20I will.
00:45:21And you won't regret this.
00:45:23I'll see you later, Morgan.
00:45:25It's time to go embrace my art.
00:45:39So?
00:45:40She told me to give you her number.
00:45:43For real?
00:45:45Yes!
00:45:46Oh!
00:45:47This is incredible.
00:45:48Okay.
00:45:49I had a premonition in the desert that this year is going to be exceptional.
00:45:52But this is next level.
00:45:54Whew.
00:45:55I can't thank you enough.
00:45:57Happy I could help.
00:45:59Alright.
00:46:00Grab your guitar.
00:46:01Ready to become a master?
00:46:02I am.
00:46:04Or just standard level will be okay.
00:46:07No way.
00:46:08If you're writing the song for his birthday, we're going to make sure it's the best present
00:46:11he's ever received.
00:46:12If you're writing the song for his birthday, we're going to make sure it's the best present
00:46:15he's ever received.
00:46:16Now let's do this thing.
00:46:17Okay?
00:46:18Let's do this thing.
00:46:19Okay?
00:46:20Okay.
00:46:21I think you're ready.
00:46:22Feeling good?
00:46:23I do.
00:46:24You sure you don't want me to come over tomorrow and sing backup?
00:46:25I think if we added some harmonies, we could really take this thing to the next level.
00:46:39Thank you, but I think it'll be more special coming from me.
00:46:40Maybe we can do harmonies on another song sometime.
00:46:41Yeah.
00:46:42That could be cool.
00:46:43Who knows?
00:46:44If everything goes well, you might be writing a song for Devon.
00:46:46She agreed to get coffee with me, and she used three different excited emojis.
00:47:01That's for me.
00:47:02Did you get coffee with me?
00:47:04Well, I guess I'd say it was good.
00:47:06Well, I guess I could do that for this.
00:47:08me and she used three different excited emojis that's really good she wouldn't emoji if she
00:47:15wasn't interested i hope so good luck with the song good luck with the girl

00:51:15what is that supposed to mean what is that supposed to mean nothing look we study when you want to
00:51:21we hang out with your friends when you want to this is just something that i want to do i didn't
00:51:26realize you were so unhappy with all the time we were spending together i'm not you're taking this
00:51:31wrong then explain it better sam is calling me what can you ignore it i'd rather talk to him than keep
00:51:41fighting with you please don't morgan thank god you answered i i knew you would oh good you brought
00:51:52backup hey sam you guys are such good friends what's going on it's bad can you tell us about it it's it's
00:52:02really bad can't help if we don't know what happened it's just it's just really hard to talk
00:52:09about this kind of thing has never happening before my whole life and i don't know what to do with all
00:52:15of these feelings just try this is a safe space katie dumped me she just dropped it on me out of nowhere
00:52:26like goodbye we're done have a nice life how could you do that to me we've been together since middle
00:52:36school have you i wasn't even positive you guys were dating well well we've taken a lot of breaks
00:52:43or whatever but the love has been there the whole time we were gonna grow old together
00:52:50that really sucks nobody likes getting dumped but you know you're only 17. there are plenty of other
00:52:57fish in the sea i don't want fish morgan i want katie i think what she's trying to say is that it hurts
00:53:05now but you'll find someone new and it won't feel so bad you really think so yeah man i know so right
00:53:14now it feels like my heart has been just torn into two she was the love of my life you're literally
00:53:23hitting on a different girl every other day what did you expect i have a flirty personality morgan
00:53:30katie actually understands that yeah but no girl wants to feel like she's competing for your attention
00:53:35no girl wants to feel like she's competing for your attention but you also shouldn't have to change who
00:53:40you are in order to make a girl happy it's not about changing who you are it's about making her feel
00:53:44special girl wants to feel like a priority well not every guy can live up to all that pressure and
00:53:49expectation so i should be myself but also be who she wants me to be since when is being romantic a lot
00:53:56of pressure it's part of being in a relationship so is doing what the other person wants to do sometimes
00:54:02okay i think i'm lost are we still talking about me sam when you have a girlfriend you shouldn't be
00:54:10trying to pick up other girls clean and simple if you want katie back you're gonna have to stop flirting
00:54:16with everyone else oh so now this is my fault sam i think i know what you need to do you do yeah but
00:54:27morgan i'm gonna have to pause you for a second sam and i need to talk about this guy to guy seriously
00:54:32trust me
00:55:02what did you guys talk about just guy stuff I gotta go find Katie Liam I cannot thank you
00:55:19enough you ever need anything I'm your guy you got yourself a good one here Morgan hang on to
00:55:26phone thanks I will so guy stuff what did you guys talk about I just told them that when you meet the
00:55:43right person whether you're 12 or 17 or 30 you have to man up and make sure she knows how much you value
00:55:54her because the right person doesn't just come along every day and when you love someone you have
00:56:06to make sure that they know that oh I love you more oh I don't want to go any longer without saying it
00:56:16because it's true you're the most important thing to me not not the drive-in not Sam Raimi not Sam
00:56:23pigeons for that matter just you so if you want to go to our first dance as a couple together
00:56:29I'd be honored to take you that means a lot to me although while you guys are on the phone I did a
00:56:40little digging we'd have to miss the first movie but if we go to the dance first and cut out early
00:56:46we're gonna make it for the last three so you mean the evil dead Sam Raimi and I get to see you all
00:56:56dressed up that's a date perfect too bad you had to get in a fight to figure that out you know we
00:57:05don't fight enough maybe we should do it more no thank you all right I should let you go I know
00:57:16you're normally in bed right now good night Morgan hey Liam yeah I love you too
00:57:26what's up hey what you doing baking cookies baking what you don't usually bake it's for the bake sale
00:57:50oh cool I'm sure it'll be a big hit then should you be at soccer practice yeah so uh weird thing
00:57:57practice was canceled today and the rest of the week because apparently the football team needs the
00:58:02field what that's not fair yeah I know it sucks coach won't tell us much more and I don't know
00:58:10maybe we'll just have to practice in the park or something you guys deserve your practice space
00:58:13let me call Devin and see what I can find out that would be awesome thank you call you back okay
00:58:20hey girl how's the baking going really great listen do you know what's going on with the field
00:58:39Liam said soccer practice was canceled because of football oh you haven't heard heard what
00:58:46Derek is getting the football team to double up on practices to get them ready for their big game
00:58:52coming up against the Trojans so what he's just canceling soccer practice doesn't own the field
00:58:58I know it's a total abuse of power but when you are captain of the football team class president
00:59:06and teacher's pet apparently you get whatever you want but what is the soccer team supposed to do
00:59:12look this isn't the first time that Derek has done something like this and it won't be the last
00:59:18it's male privilege and he thinks he can get away with it but we don't have to let him
00:59:25what do you mean I mean I want to run for president this year and unseat him
00:59:32you're a VP a VP has never run against a sitting president yeah not yet but I like making history
00:59:40and I think it would be cool if you consider running with me as secretary no as my VP
00:59:48two women in charge think about it I just wouldn't want to do anything to lose my spot in student council
00:59:56all together you're thinking about this all wrong Morgan we won't lose you know how persuasive you can be
01:00:04you convinced me to go out with Antoine and now for the cutest item in school besides you and Liam of course
01:00:13just tell me you'll think about it I will right now I need to talk to Derek good luck with that
01:00:26Morgan how's it going um great just making cookies for the bake sale oh I'm sure they're gonna be
01:00:33amazing you're such a good baker am I I don't think you've ever seen me bake well you're good at
01:00:39everything so I guess I assumed so listen I was calling about the whole practice field situation
01:00:46oh yeah have you heard how good the football team is this year haven't you guys lost every game
01:00:51well yeah but that's why we're doubling down on our practices so we can kill it next weekend when
01:00:56we play the Trojans and make the school proud but Derek with all your extra practices you're taking
01:01:02time away from the soccer team I'm not doing anything principal Lee approved it and the soccer
01:01:07team can practice anywhere we need to be on that field but so do they soccer and football have their
01:01:13practices worked out for a reason so that it's fair to everyone it's just I was talking to Liam oh
01:01:19Liam you guys are still together then yes we are how are things with you and Anika I ended things
01:01:26for good this time she just doesn't get me you know yeah sorry to hear that I thought you called
01:01:35because you wanted to be friends Morgan after everything that happened last year it's always
01:01:39been kind of awkward to be around you it's disappointing to know that you're only calling so you can help
01:01:44about Liam Derek we are friends I'm just trying to make sure everything's fair that's what student
01:01:50counsel does we represent the student body represent the student body not pull special favors for our
01:01:56boyfriends you're pulling special favors for yourself that's different if the football team wins the
01:02:02whole school wins these extra practices aren't everyone's best interest Devin is right about you
01:02:09Devin what does Devin have anything to do with this there's a hierarchy to student counsel and
01:02:15she answers to me for now but if people are unhappy with your leadership that's absurd nobody unseats a
01:02:26sitting president besides she wouldn't dare I need this for my college applications everyone needs it
01:02:32for their college applications you're not the only one who cares about this stuff Morgan do you know how hard
01:02:38it is for a South Asian male to get into Harvard it's practically impossible you know that Derek isn't
01:02:45even my real name it's Del Pinder no one named Del Pinder gets elected student body president but I
01:02:52have to do whatever it takes to stand out from every other guy from a small town with immigrant parents
01:02:58how many of those guys do you think are captain of their football team huh zero doesn't matter if our team
01:03:05sucks or that I don't even like football it gives my application an edge there's only so many spots at Harvard for
01:03:12someone like me and I plan to secure one and I won't let anyone take that from me
01:03:16that really sucks feeling like you have to change who you are in order for anyone to take you seriously
01:03:23just have no idea the pressure that I'm under from my parents school everyone expects something from
01:03:30me everyone wants something from me you're the first person to ever reject me I never even knew what
01:03:36that felt like because I was so used to pleasing everyone all the time yes even though you were
01:03:44the one person that I didn't want to disappoint look I understand being under a lot of pressure but
01:03:51if you don't want to disappoint everyone let the soccer team have the practice time back being a
01:03:56captain isn't just about winning it's about leadership the soccer team needs your support you're
01:04:03right I wasn't being fair to those guys I'll call the principal and tell them that I want to switch
01:04:09the schedules back it's the right thing to do and I know everyone will appreciate it or shall I say
01:04:16Delpinter wow no one ever calls me with my real name I like hearing you say it you should try it
01:04:25out sometime it's cool to be unique people might surprise you yeah maybe I'll see you at school
01:04:36how was mr. president I know he can be a bit much but we should cut him some slack he's got a lot on his
01:04:59plate and he let the soccer team have a practice time back he so got you what do you mean that Derek
01:05:08charm it's how he gets what he wants but I got what I want the soccer team has your practice time
01:05:15back yeah and he got what he wants Morgan you think he's a decent guy again he's good I'll give him
01:05:22that always a politician but it's not like he did all of that on purpose maybe
01:05:28maybe maybe not but politics means getting people to see what you want them to believe whether it's
01:05:36the truth or not I already made up my mind that I'm running this year and I could use a smart creative
01:05:45woman with interpersonal skills like you on my ticket you don't have to say yes but I really think you
01:05:52should okay I'll think about it do that oh and Morgan uh-huh maybe scrap those for the bake sale they
01:06:04don't look too appetizing later girl
01:06:08yo I just heard soccer practice was back on how'd you pull that off I'm a smart creative woman with
01:06:36interpersonal skills I use my political prowess oh I never I never thought of you as a politician
01:06:43before of course I am I'm on student council yeah but you know secretary I mean that organization was more
01:06:50your speed whoa did you make those those look amazing uh yeah cool I'm gonna have to come over after practice and
01:07:00try one of them sounds good have fun all right bye politics means showing people you want them to believe whether it's the truth or not
01:07:07politics means showing people you want them to believe whether it's the truth or not
01:07:12we got classic wood stain bold blue neon yellow yeah I don't think that little thing's gonna stretch around the treehouse but it would definitely get people's attention
01:07:27I vote wood stain it's a classic but whatever we do it's gonna have to wait I'm jumping on a call with a new student in a few minutes
01:07:34but it's a Saturday shouldn't you be doing that during school hours
01:07:36well principal Lee specifically asked me to take Ashley under my wing and make her feel welcome I've been texting Ashley all week and she seems really cool
01:07:41we have so much in common I'm excited to meet her that's cool you know I'm glad you're getting along what do you think it's bright
01:07:58I should get Dr. Snow White I'm sorry I hope in some real time but I'm just gonna go away now
01:08:10bright. Well, you have fun and we will paint the treehouse when you're done. I've got my overalls
01:08:17ready. Perfect. Um, I was looking for Ashley. Is she, um, is she there? Oh man, you know this always
01:08:32happens? What always happens? Well, people always get confused when your parents give you a girl's
01:08:38name. Oh, you're Ashley? Yep, the one and only. But you can call me Ash. Oh, um, hi Ash. So, how did the nail
01:08:50color work out? Neon yellow is a bold choice. Um, it's bright. I love it. It's way better than that
01:08:59pink pearl. This makes a statement. Why do you know so much about nail polish? I have three older
01:09:05sisters. It comes with the territory. Hey, you didn't tell me you played the guitar. Oh, yeah.
01:09:12Well, kind of. I'm still learning. This guy Antoine has been giving me guitar lessons. He's the guy
01:09:19dating your friend Devin, right? Right. Good memory. Well, when you're always moving around and starting
01:09:26new schools, you get really good at keeping track of names. Yeah, that must be hard. Never staying in
01:09:32the same place for too long. It can be. But luckily, my family's really tight. Plus, now I have friends
01:09:39all over the place and that's pretty cool. Yeah, that is cool. Everyone I know grew up in the same
01:09:45town. So, uh, do you have any siblings? I don't. I always wished I did, though. Although I did grow up
01:09:53best friends with my next-door neighbor, so there's that, I guess. That's cool. Are you guys still tight?
01:10:01Mm-hmm.
01:10:04Well, now that I know you play the guitar, maybe we can jam sometime. I've been, uh, trying to teach
01:10:09myself to play the drums. How do you teach yourself to play the drums? Oh, it's easy. I've just been
01:10:15watching a bunch of YouTube videos. Drums are all about rhythm. And I've got plenty of them.
01:10:23Well, the dance team is going to love you. Oh, I don't know about that one. Dancers scare me, you know?
01:10:32Why? Anybody with that much discipline is just waiting to boil over.
01:10:36Or they're incredibly free because movement is their outlet.
01:10:41Ha. You're a glass-half-full kind of girl, aren't you?
01:10:44I try to be.
01:10:48That's cool. Me too.
01:11:06So it's in the middle of the night. The car breaks down on the side of the road. My mom is in a panic.
01:11:18My dad's trying to solve everything, and my little brother has his headphones on. He can't even be
01:11:21bothered. But nobody has signal, so it feels like the end of the world, right?
01:11:27Of course.
01:11:28So I'm freaking out, you know? I'm starting to think, like, we really might be in trouble here.
01:11:32And then this car pulls up behind us with no headlights on. Everyone starts to panic.
01:11:37So my dad tells my mom to get back into the car. Meanwhile, I'm ready to fight this guy.
01:11:42Then he walks out into the light, and, uh...
01:11:45And?
01:11:46And it's my dad's new boss. It turns out we were a quarter mile from town if we had just looked through the trees.
01:11:54No!
01:11:55Yes. They sent out a big group to search for us because they threw this welcome party and we never showed up.
01:12:00Oh my god!
01:12:03Well, was it a good party?
01:12:05Well, after thinking we were going to die on the side of the highway, yeah, it was great.
01:12:09No way. I bet you and your dad could have held off any highway killers.
01:12:14Oh, you know we would have.
01:12:15I didn't realize what time it was.
01:12:25We've been talking for over three hours.
01:12:28Have we?
01:12:29You didn't even notice.
01:12:31Do you have somewhere to be?
01:12:32No, I just... I was supposed to help Liam with his project and...
01:12:36Oh, who's Liam?
01:12:38My, uh... my neighbor.
01:12:40Oh, that's right. The best friend.
01:12:42Yeah, and...
01:12:45Also my boyfriend.
01:12:46Oh!
01:12:48Lucky guy.
01:12:50Uh, well, we wouldn't want to keep Liam waiting any longer.
01:12:55Um, I've already taken up too much of your Saturday.
01:12:58No, it was nice.
01:13:00You're so easy to talk to.
01:13:02Well, you too.
01:13:03Um...
01:13:05Hey, look.
01:13:07Uh, my family gets into town next week.
01:13:09I was hoping maybe you'd want to have coffee with me.
01:13:13Uh, meet in person before my first day of school.
01:13:16That is, if it's okay with Liam, of course.
01:13:19Of course it would be.
01:13:22I'd love that.
01:13:23I can show you around downtown.
01:13:25I was hoping you'd say that.
01:13:27Just let me know when you get here.
01:13:30Okay, awesome. I can't wait.
01:13:31Once I start school, everyone's going to be wondering
01:13:34how I'm already friends with the prettiest girl on campus.
01:13:39See you soon, Ash.
01:13:41See you around.
01:13:52What am I doing?
01:13:57What am I doing?
01:13:58Hey, where have you been?
01:14:04I thought we were going to do the treehouse.
01:14:06I'm so sorry, Liam.
01:14:07I totally lost track of time and I wasn't looking at my phone.
01:14:11Can I come over now?
01:14:12Yeah, yeah, yeah, of course.
01:14:13How'd it go with Ashley?
01:14:14Is she your new BFF?
01:14:16Oh, um...
01:14:18Funny story.
01:14:20Ashley is actually Ash.
01:14:22She's a he.
01:14:22Oh.
01:14:26That's cool.
01:14:27Yeah, um...
01:14:29He seems nice and you guys would totally get along great.
01:14:33Maybe you could introduce him to the soccer team.
01:14:35Yeah, yeah, we could always, uh...
01:14:38Use another good player.
